About the GBG program

GBGs are independent community-led groups formed by passionate business professionals and company owners who share knowledge about Google products and web technologies for local business success.

Each GBG chapter organizes a variety of events like social gatherings, workshops, online Hangouts, and more where like-minded business professionals can connect, learn, and get inspired. Topics range from how to better market your company and successfully sell products/services online via Google AdWords, to how to improve internal/external business processes for the organization via Google Apps, and more. You don’t need any technical skills to attend GBG events since all the discussions are business-focused.

Program membership is free, doesn’t create any formal relationship between you and Google, and you can leave the program at any time. Google supports and recognizes GBGs, but doesn’t own or manage them.
